 The racial discrimination against the Asian students is usually done on the basis of the colour of the skin. They are perceived to be having a low level of intellect which is grossly untrue. The high-handed elitist attitude towards Asian students by Europe and America is gradually changing as Asians have showed their worth quite resoundingly in the past decade. Countries like India and China are growing at a fast rate economically and the world is waking up and taking notice.

The discrimination on the basis of the skin colour and perceived low level of development which the West has against Asians has also got a lot to do with media projection. Most of the time, television channels and media are known to show the rural side of Asian countries to European companies and Americans, without reflecting as much on the modernization of Asian countries. However due to rapid strides of development in Asia, awareness through Internet and outsourced businesses which have migrated to countries like India, countries in Europe and North America are getting less discriminatory against Asian students.

 Yes, more then often. Asians have to face the rattle of racial discrimination in America and most European country. Specially In schools and universities, young Asians are looked down upon by Americans and European fellow students who consider themselves to be superior for what ever reasons.

Racism in medicine and other streams persists all over America and Europe. There are discriminatory practices in the admission procedure at St George's Hospital medical school in London. According to a report, Asian students at Manchester University Medical School are more likely than white students to fail clinical examinations despite good performance in written exams.

Asian students in America and Europe are the odd group out, they lack racial preferences enjoyed by other minorities and the advantages of wealth and heredity mostly accrued by upper-class whites. Asian students are a typecast in college admissions and social circles and schools and universities. They are joked about as quasi-robots programmed by their parents to ace math and science.
